    I agree with you, I'm usually several years behind on most things.. I couldn't buy a new iPhone every September like a lot of people I know. I do enjoy watching the keynotes though to know what I'm missing out on

    thoughts on soundbars in general? I love my ct260h but sometimes I feel like I'm not getting all I'd be getting from a good pair of bookshelves or floors

    been working with simulated surround for what feels like forever though

    gotta get a 7.1 system together

    I love mine. My friends father gets discounts for JBL equipment so i got a very good $600 sound bar for only $250

    Never get a sound bar with the bass built into the bar itself those cheap ones s---. You have to get it where the bass is a separate piece

    39inch LCD TV I use as my computer monitor, in my bedroom
    iPod Touch 4th generation
    Google Chrome Book (Acer)
